I have been trying to make things as thin as I could for some long I forgot how nice thicker glass was. I have had a couple orders as of late for very heavy adult beverage holders. IE> They don't want to worry about them breaking under the pressure of a night of drinking.

Challenge Accepted!

Need to make them just thick enough to take some damage but not so thick that casual drinking on a Friday night will leave them in pieces.

The old annealer that I was using to cool my work down just was not big enough to support my efforts. Also with Ryan (my brother), moving back into town and being a glass blower as well I needed to get more space.

After a long lead time it is at the shop and ready to be wired up. Once I get it all online I will post of picture of the new set up. This should double my space and allow me to create some much larger work.
